Campbell Industries

San Diego CA

Campbell Industries was founded in 1906, as Campbell Machine Company, a builder and repairer of tuna seiners. In the 1960s, it was sold to a group of San Diego fishermen who changed the name to Campbell Industries and took it public, but this was not a successful move and in 1979 it was sold to Marco. The market collapsed in 1982, however, and Marco sold it to San Diego Marine Industries, Inc., a company not to be confused with San Diego Marine Construction, Inc., the fore-runner of Southwest Marine. It continued under these owners until 1991 and was eventually sold for development as part of the San Diego Convention Center.
